How do you prepare and keep warm during the parade? I took my kids a few years back and they were miserable despite double sweater, winter jackets, boots, scarfs, and gloves. They were kicking and screaming to go home.
I think it was a nice parade and I am sure it was nice this year as well and maybe this time around it was as bone chilling freezing as in other years.

The parade is going down the tubes. Only 15,000 people estimated attended.

Years ago there was 50,000. Those were the days before Metroplex, and when the parade was a Christmas parade and was held properly on the day after Thanksgiving. The big attendance numbers were occurring even after most of the major department stores closed
